Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.

either the round ends and someone wins..or people noob for the rest of the round. Which way do you want it?
That's kinda harsh don't you think? Everyone (yes everyone) was a newbie at some point. It takes time to learn to do maps. By experts capping the flag and basically ending the game (like on deathrace), you risk the beginers leaving the game and thus lowering the population of the server(s).
I know quite a bit of the races don't have this cap issue, but then again those are stunt maps that are more or less designed for experts with a very few (stress very) stunt tracks that can be done by most anyone. And some racing maps that are pretty much a bore fest (like Camber Sands).
To be honest, if you want someone to learn how to do these tracks, maybe you should get them to ride along with you. Can't tell you how many times I rode along with Ala Meat Head and learned a few tracks to the point I can finish some hard ones (though still takes a bit of time). Otherwise people are going to have to practice in a empty server and I don't think you want people to wait around for a empty place.
Few days ago when you guys had that tournament (I guess), I was pretty hot under the collar for 2 reasons; My unfortunate bad connection and the same person capping the flag to end the race, which I know led to 2 people saying f-it and leaving as well as myself. It becomes very irratating not being able to finish a race when it's doable, but takes a little more time. If's it's going to be a real tourny, then password it or something when you don't want beginers there slowing the pace.
Maybe this post should be somewhere else, but saw 2 comments that kinda twitched me so thought would make a reasonable response.
